Horry County, South Carolina
Selling vacant land in Horry County is a different job to selling a home
Most of what we are asked to buy in Horry County is real acreage — mid-sized tracts near Loris, Nichols and Galivants Ferry, some of it cutover timber, some of it ground that has been in the same family for two or three generations. That kind of land needs a cash buyer, because the retail market for it is thin and financing falls through often. A lot of the ground here is agricultural or has been farmed at some point, which brings its own questions: a handshake lease with a neighboring farmer, a use-value tax deferral, or fields that have gone back to scrub.
There is no middle step here. We are the party actually buying the land, so the number we give you is not an estimate of what somebody else might pay — it is what we will pay, and it does not hinge on a bank saying yes.
The local detail that actually changes the number
South Carolina property taxes are billed in the autumn and go delinquent in the following year, after which penalties are added in stages and the parcel moves toward the county’s delinquent tax sale. Deeds and plats for Horry County are recorded with the county Register of Deeds (or Clerk of Court) in Conway. Horry County covers about 1,133 square miles, so “the Horry market” is really several markets — what a tract is worth near Loris and what it is worth in the far corner of the county are different numbers. Wetlands are a genuine factor in this county — a meaningful share of the parcels we look at here have wet ground on them. Wet acreage is not worthless, but it is worth less than dry buildable acreage and any honest offer has to reflect that. We check the mapping before we quote rather than after. On rural parcels DHEC and the county health department control septic approval, and soil suitability often decides whether a parcel is a homesite or just acreage. Land carrying South Carolina’s agricultural use assessment can trigger roll-back taxes when the use changes. It does not stop a sale — it just needs to be dealt with knowingly. For what it is worth, our own research file on Horry County runs to 450 parcels, and the bulk of it sits in two size bands — two to five acres and forty to a hundred acres. That is where we are quickest, though we buy well outside those bands in both directions — small lots and tracts of several hundred acres alike.
On a Horry County parcel we look at
- Merchantable timber, or evidence the tract was recently cut over
- Whether the ground is currently leased to a farmer, and on what terms
- Deferred or use-value tax status and what a change of use would trigger
- Topography and how much of the acreage is genuinely usable
- Existing structures, wells, or old mobile homes that need dealing with
Where we buy in Horry County
Conway and the surrounding communities — Loris, Nichols, Galivants Ferry, Aynor, Green Sea, Longs and Little River — plus the rural addresses in between that do not sit in any town at all. We buy anything from a single-acre lot up to tracts of 972 acres here, and the size that suits us most is around 24.9 acres. We buy in the counties around it as well — Dillon, Georgetown and Marion — so if your land straddles a county line, that is not a complication for us.
How selling works
Three steps. You can stop at any one of them and owe nothing.
Tell us about the parcel
Address or parcel number, roughly how many acres, and anything you already know — road access, whether it perc’d, back taxes, heirs. Two minutes on the phone or a short form.
We research it at our cost
We do our homework on Horry County parcels ourselves, at our cost. We pull recent sales of comparable acreage, check zoning, flood mapping and access, and confirm who is actually on the deed. You pay nothing and you are not committed to anything.
You get a written cash offer
A clear, no-obligation number in writing within 24 hours, with the terms spelled out. If it works, we open title and cover the closing costs. We can close in as little as 14 to 30 days once title work is back.
Selling to us vs. listing it
We would rather you choose with clear eyes. Listing sometimes wins on gross price; a cash sale wins on certainty, speed and cost. Compare them properly:
| Selling to Dreamify | Listing with an agent | |
|---|---|---|
| Who you are dealing with | A direct cash buyer — we are the ones purchasing | An agent marketing it to someone else |
| Commission | None | Typically 6–10% on land |
| Closing costs | We cover them | Usually split or seller-paid |
| Repairs, survey, clean-up | Not your problem | Often requested by retail buyers |
| Financing risk | None — cash | Land loans fall through often |
| Timeline | As little as 14 to 30 days once title work is back | Land can sit on the market for months |
If we think you would do better listing it, we will say so on the first call. We would rather lose a deal than talk somebody into the wrong one.
Why owners in Horry County call us
No commission, no fees
Nothing comes off your side for a listing fee, and we do not charge for the research we do on the parcel.
We pay the closing costs
The standard closing costs are ours, not yours, and the deed tax is built into the number we quote.
Written offer within 24 hours
You get a real number in writing, with the terms spelled out, not a verbal range designed to get you on a second call.
Back taxes are not a problem
Delinquent taxes are settled out of the proceeds at closing. You do not need to clear them first.
Heirs and estates are routine
Unprobated estates, multiple heirs and deeds still in a parent’s name are the most common situations we handle.
Out-of-state owners welcome
Everything is done remotely — documents by email, a notary where you live. You never need to travel to the county.

Horry County land selling questions
Do you buy land with an old mobile home or shed on it?
Usually yes. Structures do not scare us off — we just need to know what is there, because clearing or dealing with it is a cost that has to sit somewhere in the numbers.
What is the fastest you could have this done?
Offer in writing inside 24 hours, and closing in as little as 14 to 30 days once title comes back clean. The title work is the part nobody can rush safely, so that is where the time goes.
Do I pay any fees or commissions?
No. There is no commission, no listing fee and no charge for our research. We cover the standard closing costs. In South Carolina the deed recording fee is $1.85 for every $500 of value and it is the grantor’s liability — the seller’s (S.C. Code §12-24-10). We account for it in the offer instead of surprising you with it at closing.
The taxes have not been paid in years. Will you still buy it?
Yes. Unpaid taxes come out of the proceeds at closing rather than out of your pocket beforehand. It is worth telling us early so the number we quote already accounts for them.
There are several heirs and we do not all agree. Can you still help?
Often yes, though it depends on how the title reads. If some heirs will sell and others will not, there are routes — buying the willing shares, or a division — but they take longer and cost more. We will tell you which situation you are actually in before you spend money on a lawyer.
I have never even seen the parcel. Does that matter?
Not to us. We research the parcel ourselves — mapping, access, flood data, comparable sales — so you do not need to know its history to sell it. Plenty of the land we buy was inherited by somebody who never set foot on it.
